Millimeter/minute
Millimeter per minute (mm/min) is a unit of speed that measures the distance in millimeters traveled per minute.
History/Origin
The millimeter per minute has been used in various scientific and industrial contexts to quantify slow speeds, especially in precision engineering and manufacturing processes. It is derived from the metric system's millimeter unit and the time unit minute, with usage increasing alongside the adoption of metric measurements.
Current Use
Today, mm/min is commonly used in fields such as machining, 3D printing, and material testing to specify the rate of movement or processing speed in precise, small-scale applications.
Cosmic Velocity - Third
The third cosmic velocity is the minimum speed an object must reach to escape the gravitational pull of the Earth without further propulsion, approximately 11.2 km/s.
History/Origin
The concept of cosmic velocities was developed in the early 20th century to describe the different escape velocities from celestial bodies. The third cosmic velocity specifically relates to Earth's escape velocity, becoming prominent with advancements in astronautics and space exploration.
Current Use
The third cosmic velocity is used in space mission planning to determine the required speed for spacecraft to leave Earth's gravitational influence and reach interplanetary or interstellar space.
